    @ACT-Crusader Not if someone is really hurt, like in this case. But that's just me.

    It was just the reaction which made me laugh for some reason.

    Well done Oz.

    Some dumb play by the BFs to take the ball into contact with 5 seconds to go

    Dammit.

    Still great game from the BF7s. Losing Hirini was the difference.

    Nah. We had possession and why we took it into contact is beyond me.

    @ACT-Crusader I'm convinced it made the differnce. She's a great leader and would have calmed them down when they were under pressure.

    Anyhow. still a great first tournament for the BFs. Silver in their first World Series tournament in more than two years, and first tournament since the Olympics.

    That's 18 important points.

    FT: NZ 17 - 21 Aus

    There were literally 5 seconds on the clock. She had already taken the ball away from the line and all she had to do was hold it or even run backwards. Unless our captain would rip the ball away from her then it would make no difference. That was poor play that cost us possession and ultimately winning the game.

    @ACT-Crusader Why rip it away. She has a voice and can tell her what to do.

    Not too upset by the loss. They've played really well and will be better for it for the Toulouse tournament in May.

    By the way, this was Australia's 4th gold of the Series. They also have one bronze. Great team.

    Why wasn't Woodman starting instead of Saili? Hotham and Te Tamaki added something off the bench.

    Standard Sevens train of thought these days. You keep a little firepower on the bench for injection at the right moment.
    Saili was a bit hot and cold in her games but I could see why they wanted her there at the start with the option to yank her off.
    Woodman is also more effective once the initial feeling out period has passed. Blyde attracts more defenders and tires the opposing forwards
